Now that is funny. At class I was told that on the new Bernina 830s, the really pricey one, you clip the thread and pull it through the needle, NEVER backwards. I thought 'that is ridiculous' :!: If machines are getting that touchy it's time to stick with the vintage machines. I want a machine I can enjoy; not fuss and worry over. I do own two Berninas and love them.
